Cousins Allie, Kendall, Lola, Ruby, and Hunter are devastated by the news, so they set out on a mission to save the camp!It’s a job that will take some strong prayer, a clever plan, and a little sleuthing, made difficult by the constant presence of Allie’s new “friend,” Madison Doonsberry, and California surfer-boy Nathan Fremont.

The Boston Globe calls Frederick Buechner "one of our finest writers." USA Today says he's "one of our most original… storytellers." Now this acclaimed author gives us his most beguiling novel yet--a magical tale of love, betrayal, and redemption inspired by Shakespeare's The Tempest.On wealthy Plantation Island in South Florida, an old man waits, Kenzie Maxwell is a writer, a raconteur, a rascal, an altruist, a mystic--a charismatic figure who enjoys life with his rich third wife but muses daily on the sins of his past. Two decades ago, Kenzie had to leave New York because of a scandal. He'd been a volunteer at a runawat shelter, and he'd fallen in love with a seventeen-year-old girl--a girl who died while giving birth to Kenzie's daughter. His older brother, Dalton, a lawyer and board member at the shelter, decided to quell the rumors by releasing Kenzie's note of apology to the press. Kenzie's reputation--and the girl's--were destroyed. He has never forgiven his brother.Now it's the eve of Kenzie's seventieth birthday, and a storm is brewing. His beloved daughter, Bree--the child of the scandal--is coming down from New York for his birthday party. But his brother Dalton is coming down, too, to do some legal work for the island's ill-tempered matriarch. Aided and abetted by Dalton's happy-go-lucky stepson, a loutish gardener, a New Age windsurfer, a bumbling bishop, and a bona fide tempest, Kenzie must somehow contrive to reconcile with his brother--and make peace with his past.Infused with humanity, and informed by faith. The Storm is Frederick Buechner's most captivating novel since Godric--a richly satisfying contemporary story of fragmented families and love's many mysteries that will move you, makeyou laugh, and fill you with wonder.

Profundamente conmovedora, La tienda roja combina una rica historia con el valor de la ficción moderna: una nueva visión de… la sociedad bíblica femenina.Su nombre era Dina y en la Biblia apenas se la menciona para referirse a un violento suceso de venganza que protagonizaron su padre, Jacob, y sus hermanos Simeón y Levi. Única hija de Jacob entre los numerosos varones que este tuvo con Lía, su primera mujer, y con sus otras tres esposas, Zilpa, Raquel y Bilha, todas ellas hijas de Laban. Dina relata su propia historia creando una autentica evocación del mundo femenino en la época del Antiguo Testamento. En aquellos tiempos, las tradiciones, las historias familiares y los conocimientos en general se perpetuaban de generación en generación por medio del linaje materno. Y el traspaso de toda esta sabiduría tenia lugar en la "tienda roja," espacio donde se recluían las mujeres cuando no podían aparecer ante los ojos de los hombres: durante los días del ciclo femenino, después de los partos y en momentos de enfermedad. Allí, Dina explicara las historias de sus "cuatro madres," a partir del día en que Jacob apareció en las tierras de su tío Laban, así como el azaroso traslado de su familia desde las Mesopotamia hasta Canaán, y mas tarde su emigración a Egipto.Pero La tienda roja no es simplemente una reconstrucción del libro del Génesis desde el punto de vista de la mujer, sino una novela histórica minuciosamente investigada que nos introduce en el riquísimo mundo de las tradiciones mas ancestrales. Todo un acopio de normas y conductas imprescindibles para la supervivencia en tierras áridas y desoladas que, además de constituir la base de las religiones judeocristianas, siguen vigentes en algunos rincones del mundo hasta el día de hoy.
